GULF SHORES, Alabama -- Two teens are facing charges after police say the boys made homemade bombs Monday and tried to set them off at the beach.

Gulf Shores police spokesman Sgt. Jason Woodruff said the teens were at the 6th Street beach access about 3:30 p.m. when they mixed household chemicals in soda bottles, which caused one to explode. While the one went off as planned a second one did not and the teens ran.

Officers caught one 13-year-old who was processed through the department and the other will be taken into custody Tuesday, Woodruff said. Both boys will be headed to juvenile court and will likely face charges such as reckless endangerment.

“The fire department handled the bottle and it’s my understanding that they may have called the Mobile bomb squad,” Woodruff said.

While thankful it wasn’t what he considers a real bomb, Woodruff said it was a dangerous prank.
